Oh, I thought some (In reply to Jeremy Harris from comment #3)

Oh, sorry for bothering! I'm a bit confused:

""" Documentation for unseen:
When this option is set true, routing does not cease if the router accepts the
address. Instead, a copy of the incoming address is passed to the next router,
overriding a false setting of more. There is little point in setting more false
if unseen is always true, but it may be useful in cases when the value of
unseen contains expansion items (and therefore, presumably, is sometimes true
and sometimes false). 
"""

""" Documentation for redirect_router:
The redirect_router option can be set to the name of any router instance. It
causes the routing of any generated addresses to start at the named router
instead of at the first router. This option has no effect if the router in
which it is set does not generate new addresses. 
"""

As in 'unseen', I have the impression that routers are always processed in
order, no matter whether new addresses are generated. How is it the case that
the first router is considered?

As for 'not working', I mean it's allowed for Linux usernames to include '-',
and it is possible for someone to be called something-sent . While this isn't
likely, it is an unsatisfying edge case. Instead of juggling with local_part to
store information, I believe using variables internal to exim would be more
elegant. If I submit a pull request, is there a decent chance it would be
accepted?
